Sixty-One

Self portrait. GT in his basement shop.
Well, it's THAT day again! The day on which I was born sixty-one years ago is today. So, in light of this auspicious occasion, I am going to take some time to reflect on a few things. Here we go, in no particular order....

  • Two years....well-almost two... of this pandemic is tiring. I feel like it has been 2020 forever. 
  • Last year was.....uggh! Last year was great too. Lots of changes happened. 
  • Working as a mover for a moving company part time here and there has been enlightening. You've no idea how hard these people work. Think about your toughest days on a bicycle. It's that hard- maybe harder- and those guys and gals do that five days a week. 
  • I still like riding bicycles- a lot! 
  • I still like playing guitar 
  • I still really enjoy writing. 
  • I love my family and count myself super-blessed to have a wife and two children that love me.

I have my health, such as it is. It is good, but sixty-one years and you know what? Things change. I'm not complaining. It is what it is. And that is mostly really good for my age. But I won't kid you- as you age, you'd better become acquainted with pain, changing performance of certain body parts, and hair management where you thought hair would never grow! Just kidding! A little......

Thanks for reading G-Ted Productions. I hope that you have an awesome day!
